Justin Roiland and Dan Harmon’s Rick and Morty is an animated show on Monday nights at 10:30 p.m. on Adult Swim. That, right there, from the cartoon factor, to the timeslot, to the channel, is the reason more people aren’t watching — well, that, and it’s about a bitter, alcoholic scientist and his horny teenage grandson who go on adventures that usually end with death and without a moral. But mostly the first thing! So perhaps I’m resorting to hyperbole here, and I just really, really, really, really want people to watch the show, but you should watch Rick and Morty because it’s really, really, really, really good. Really.

But don’t take my word for it. Here are the Metacritic scores for critics and users for Rick and Morty:

Only Arrested Development has a higher cumulative score (it’s not the best method of proving a show’s worth, but it’s all we got). Rick and Morty is in the midst of a historically great first season, so to quote one of its greatest characters, before Monday’s season finale, you should I’M RICK AND MORTY LOOK AT ME.

To be fair, 30 Rock didn’t really find its footing till the back half of the season, and Veep isn’t everyone’s cup of tea. The characters are such horrible people it makes Always Sunny look like the Andy Griffith Show. No excuses for Louie though. Anyways, Rick and Morty is amazing. Wubbalubbadubdubs!

Everyone who likes Rick and Morty needs to check out Justin Roiland’s House of Cosbys on YouTube. Absolutely fucking hilarious, the only thing that sucks is Crazy Ol’ Pudding Pop himself sued to make them quit making any more episodes.
